Former CIA director and ex-President George H.W. Bush is sticking up for his alma mater agency against the predations of Nancy Pelosi.

In his 85th birthday interview with the conservative Washington Times, Bush takes a gentlemanly shot at the speaker for suggesting she was misled by the agency during a 2002 briefing on interrogations — and not surprisingly, he didn't appreciate her crack that the CIA misleads Congress all the time.

"I think she made most unfortunate comments, and I think she's paying a price for it," Mr. Bush told The Times. "I think people see her as having been told — briefed on some things and then kind of acting like it didn't happen. So I'm a little disappointed in her."

When asked directly whether the CIA lies "all the time," Mr. Bush said it does not.

I notice the author of this article labels the washington Times "conservative".
I wonder if he ever labeled the Washington Post "liberal".
I know the answer. You all know the answer. And the author knows the answer.
Glenn Thrush, your slip is showing. Let's drop the objective pretense.

RE:Rightman - "Glenn Thrush, your slip is showing..
Good call, I was thinking the same thing...Calling the Washington Times "conservative" is a flat out lie. The "WT" employs more self identified democrats than republicans by a margin of 2 to 1. Hence, It is often referred as the "Washington Slimes" by those on the right. I think Politico did real good job during the election, but has noticeably shifted left, post election.

Why does it have to even be said? "conservative paper" or "liberal media" any intelligant person at the end of the day sees through the manuer . Peoples actions are what we should judge, and pelosi is a lying manipulative worm.

Glenn your liberal column gets as much traffic as the obituaries.. Try writing a column about how well Nancy lies instead of using the Senior Bush to make a point you liberal lefties can?t.. I'd love to see your leash yanked...

Glenn, I like your point of view, but what really upsets me is that Pelosi is what she is and does what she does, yet not once is she held accountable for any of it. I appreciate your attempt, but where are all the critics when you need them. I am becoming obsessed with waiting for her to finally be ousted.

I say put everybody under oath and see who is the squirming worm.
Republican/Democrat, whatever.
If you were involved I want your testimony under oath.
It will eliminate all of the spin and the liars will be exposed.
My guess is this would be very enlightening even though some would likely view the results as suspect no matter what comes out.
One thing is certain, "WE The People" don't yet know the truth about a lot of things

Pelosi is a typical superficial double-digit IQ California botox bimbo who babbles incoherently. She is an embarrassmnent to the Dems and the country. Obama needs to ask her to gracefully step aside in favor of Steni Hoyer, who is at least able to coherently articulate a thought.

Pelosi is a witch. Thousands of protesters greeted her in Houston Friday. No one is happy about her anti American policies, her power trips on her huge carbon footprint plane. She is what is wrong with government.

Attention to all Conservatives, multiple members of the Republican Party, including Dick Cheany and John McCain have agreed with Nancy Pelosi that the CIA lies, or has lied. Please stop with the ignorant, bias, partisan BS.

Nancy is entitled to lie about anything she wants. It is part of our Democrat agenda of diversion and deception. This strategy will help further our new Sociocrat party and make the outdated repug values of hard work and prosperity irrelevant. We must raise taxes again and have another election recount to take the attention off of Leader Pelosi. We won the election so we are allowed to do anything to divert attention off of our great Kenyan President.

The head of the CIA could not CONCLUSIVELY say that she WAS briefed on EVERYTHING. The head of the CIA was wrong on the breifings he says were given to Bob Graham. I think there is enough reasonable doubt to say that maybe the CIA didn't give a full and honest account of the breifings. This does not exonerate Pelosi, this merely shows the need for a truth commision in all of this. Pelosi and the dems back the idea of a truth commission, why wont more Repubs get on board with this idea. If Pelosi lied this would all come out in the truth commission, if the CIA used this case as a political tool this would also be revealed, case closed.

CRACK -COCAINE IN THE 80'S ,IRAN CONTRA????????? MAYBE THE GENTLEMAN HAS BEEN SMOKING IT TO LONG .WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANOTHER LIBERAL DEMOCRAT TELLING LIES ABOUT THE CIA IN 2009 .DAMN ,LIBERALS ARE REALLY HURTING IF THEY HAVE TO GO BACK THIRTY YEARS .WHAT HAPPEN RUNNING OUT OF *****ING ABOUT GEORGE BUSH .
